Jerking people around has always been amusing to him.

Need to stop getting sucked into his rabbit holes

This is exactly what it is all about:
"Trump just wants the U.S. to look larger on a map."

Thanks for the gift.

Agreed, djt's cudgel "diplomacy" will not bear the fruit he thinks it will, and the amount of goodwill and deference paid our country based on the strength of our relationships will erode quickly if that's all he has to offer.

It’s the beginning of the international nightmare.

quercus48.bsky.social•40 days ago

He thrives on chaos, he thinks that it keeps people off balance. Now, other nations know how he works and, have made contingencies. They will get the better of him in any deal. He isn’t as smart as other leaders and, headlines are more important than the facts.

Here we go again:
Just re-read the last paragraph...
The media will hang on every word the convicted CRIMINAL felon utters, just to get clicks and ratings.

blueskyredhawk.bsky.social•40 days ago

@anneapplebaum.bsky.social Yes, good article but I'm mystified as to why you wouldn't even mention the possibility that Trump's interest is mandated by Putin. The urgency and immediacy alone suggest something a lot stronger than irrationality or even insanity.

wikipeter.bsky.social•39 days ago

Good point!
I think mainly that he wanted to obscure his legal wrongdoings (the sentencing that wasnt)...
and creating a hubbub stealing the light is also on the menue...

blueskyredhawk.bsky.social•39 days ago

Would love if that was it. We'll see!

Can the media start talking about his dementia, now?

Trump is a lunatic. Don’t give him anything, Denmark.

mn-therapist.bsky.social•40 days ago

His ability to fuck with everything everywhere is the thing that makes me so depressed right now.

demofighter.bsky.social•40 days ago

When you have someone like Trump as a “friend,” you no longer need enemies.

thedude-iam.bsky.social•40 days ago

How is the world going to deal with Trump?

eaglojo.bsky.social•40 days ago

Great article!

We will see how far he and his Congress cronies are willing to go to practically invade a friendly NATO country.

tazman108.bsky.social•40 days ago

At some point someone is going to initiate a deniable op to have Trump ended. There are so many foreign countries that are annoyed with him.

laintain-16.bsky.social•40 days ago

Hope to see him ended soon .

stephanienva.bsky.social•40 days ago

The Danes did nothing wrong. Our incoming president is off his rocker.

ard71.bsky.social•40 days ago

Like last time ,he always provides the press with the shining object on his right hand while clutching his next grift with his left and both feet. like Pavlov’ dog the press goes chasing it down the road. The authoritarian playbook provides for a kernel of truth in everything to appease the deniers

It's Mr. Burns, but everyday is Mattingly's sideburns.
